2. Starting the server

Use the CLI to start the server locally:

coflux server --no-auth

The --no-auth flag disables authentication, which simplifies getting started. See the authentication documentation for options for setting up authentication for production use.

By default, the server uses a project called "default". Use --project to choose a different name — a project is a top-level unit of isolation with its own data, orchestration process, and set of workspaces. See server configuration for more details.

note

The command is a wrapper around docker run, so you'll need to have Docker installed and running.

Alternatively you can start the server with Docker directly:

docker run \
  --pull always \
  -p 7777:7777 \
  -v $(pwd):/data \
  -e COFLUX_REQUIRE_AUTH=false \
  ghcr.io/bitroot/coflux

The server is now running on localhost:7777.

Next, we can define a workflow...
